Label protocol
Agilent Protocol One-Color Microarray-Based Gene Expression analysis (Low Input Quick Amp Labeling) Version 6.5 May 2010. Samples are retrotranscribed (first strand synthesis) and labeled using Low imput Quick Amp Labeling kit, One color (Agilent Technologies, Cat. Nº 5190-2305) following manufacturer instructions.First, total RNA is retrotranscribed with AffinityScript Reverse Transcriptase (AffinityScript RT), an engineered thermostable mutant derived from Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) reverse transcriptase, using Oligo dT primers coupled to T7 promoter. Double stranded cDNA synthesized by AffinityScript RT is in vitro transcribed by T7 RNA pol in the presence of either Cy3-CTP or Cy5-CTP fluorophores to generate amplified and labeled cRNA. Labeled samples were purified with silica-based RNeasy spin columns (Qiagen). Amount of nucleic acid labeled: 50 ng. After labeling and purification, cRNA is quantify with NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer in order to determine the yield and specific activity of each reaction. Yield: ug of cRNA. Should be > 0.825 ug. Specific activity: pmol Cy3 per ug of cRNA. Should be > 6. All the labeled samples were above those limits.
Hybridization protocol
Chamber type: SureHyb hybridization chamber (Agilent). Quantity of each labeled extract used: 600 ng. Volume: 40 uL. Temperature (ºC): 65. Duration: 17 hours at 10 rpm in the hybridization oven.

Data processing
Images (.tiff images) were quantified using Agilent Feature Extraction Software (ver. 10.7.3.1) (Agilent Technologies).Software (ver. 10.7.3.1) (Agilent Technologies). Feature Extraction protocol for data extraction: GE1_107_Sep09. Design File/Grid Template: 035147_D_F_20110629. QC Metric Set: GE1_QCMT_Sep09. The processed signal is corrected for background and microarray processing artifacts (Spatial detrending). For background correction it uses the negative control feature data, which corresponds to sequences with no expected hybridization, and it is an indication of unspecific binding or hybridization. The most significant data are:Standard deviation of the spot signal (feature and background). Flagging of those features with anomalous data (non-uniform outliers, which are features with high standard deviation of the spot signal, saturated features, and population outliers for replicated features). Calculation and correction of the systematic error. Raw data processed on GeneSpring GX 12.6 (Agilent Technologies). File contains the summarized data per biological feature and per sample.Preprocessing: First we transform all Feature Extraction flags to Absent/Marginal/Present calls (Compromized/Not Detected/Detected Flags in the new GeneSpring versions). Feature is NOT Positive and significant: ABSENT (Compromized). Feature is NOT uniform: ABSENT (Compromized). Feature is NOT well above background: MARGINAL (Not Detected). Feature is Saturated: MARGINAL (Not Detected). Feature is Population outlier: ABSENT (Compromized). Threshold raw signals (lineal data) to 1. Summarization: calculate the geometric mean of replicated probes The resulted summarized lineal data is the “Raw Signal” in result files. Gene Spring uses the “gProcessedSignals” from Feature Extraction txt Raw Data Files). Log base2 transformation. Intra-chip normalization: quantile normalization. Baseline to Control Samples. Mean of T0 UP samples. Filter Probesets based on Present/Absent calls: Use flag spot information in data files. Entities retained in which 100 % of samples in 1 out of any 5 conditions (T0 UP, T1 UP, T1 DOWN, T2 UP, T2 DOWN) have Present or Marginal Flag. There are 61.377 Biological Features or probes in the microarray design, and after filtering 42.469 have been retained.
